Mass Killings in the United States 2019

It used to the the massacre-of-the-day in the nation. Now it’s the massacre-of-the-day in California, or Oklahoma, or Teennessee. Coming soon to your state: WalMart as a free-fire zone. (My paranoid SIL won’t shop the local Wally’s any more.)

The local papers have said the police are looking for several killers. This list includes only cases with one killer.

All of these lists are now available at https://saidit.net/s/Lists/

  1. 1 December 2019 Minneapolis MN 4* killed (shot) (http://m.startribune.com/police-2-dead-after-shots-fired-man-ducks-into-south-minneapolis-house/565659702/)
    Incidents 27
    Killed 143

You will note the post directly above this one had a mistake in the count.

  1. 6 December 2019 Pensacola FL 4* killed (shot) (US Official: Saudi Student Suspect In Pensacola Shooting - VINnews)

Incidents 71

Killed 334

Upon further review #71 will be disallowed as the killers seems to have been killed by the police, rather than by his own hand.

US mass killings hit new high in 2019, most were shootings.

I’m curious to see how their numbers align with Paul’s in this thread.

A 2019 Mass Killings-by-gun and this list of 2019 Mass Killings (by any means) are here, which seems to be functioning as my own private blog of lists.

I shall continue this project next year unless there are objections. Following Opal’s Rule I will be back when we have three incidents in the new year.

Allow me to put the complete list here, if the system allows me to.

Mass killings in the United States, 2019.
